Are Aero Machines safe for residents with respiratory issues?
Yes. The chemistry is hypoallergenic, IFRA-compliant, and used in dialysis centers and oncology floors.
Why it happens
The system neutralizes airborne odor molecules using a dry vapor, not a wet spray or heavy aerosol. This process physically bonds with malodors, removing them instead of covering them with a stronger scent. By eliminating odors at a molecular level rather than adding potential irritants, it provides a fundamentally gentler approach to air quality management suitable for sensitive environments.
What to check
Place any air treatment system according to manufacturer guidelines for proper dispersion, avoiding concentration near residents. Confirm the correct chemistry is used for the application; fragrance-free options are often preferable in sensitive areas. Always verify that building ventilation and exhaust fans are operating correctly, as proper air exchange is a critical part of maintaining indoor air quality.
When to call a professional
If persistent odors remain despite a functioning treatment system, or if residents report new or worsening sensitivities, consult a specialist. A professional can conduct a site survey to identify hidden odor sources, such as biofilm in drains or HVAC issues, and verify that the system is correctly calibrated for the space.
How Luften handles it
Luften utilizes Aero Machines that release a dry vapor to bond with and neutralize airborne residues like ammonia. Our encapsulation chemistry eliminates malodors instead of masking them with fragrance. For sensitive populations in memory care units, we provide fragrance-free options to avoid agitation. A specialist can perform a site survey at no cost to identify root odor sources and recommend a treatment strategy.
